Gamers, why are developers giving every Black character the Killmonger haircut?

Beats the typical afro, corn rolls, and a baldie :francis:

See...here's what I don't understand, how create a CACs can have a gazillion options for their hair, while I can't even get a fade with fukking waves for my character :why:

Black folks hair is not hard, but somehow developers think we are sasquatch with the shyt.

It's the same as every Black character in the 90's having a high top fade. It's visually striking.

Thought about growing my own hair out and doing it too, but I never could get my hair to grow consistently enough. My hairline is (thankfully) intact, but won't grow more than 3 inches. :mjcry:

I mean, what's wrong with it? It's the popular hairstyle now. Better this than every black character having a fade or some shyt.
I rarely see black character with a fade or waves in games. Its always a basic theo Huxtable, bald, a dusty afro, cornrows, and now dreads. I'd love to see waves is video game or a nice fade in a game not named NBA 2k

On one hand it’s a cool style…on the other you don’t ever see brothers with locs like that, ironically

Breh, most of the time it's either different ways of dreads, fades, and etc.

Somehow these developer CACs think that somehow black people's hair is stuck in a time paradox of Iverson hang time and Fat Albert perm.

Like I want to take a game developer on a cruise down the block to show him that black people can do the absolute most with their hair, beyond the typical default character shyt.

Developers are just following trends
It’s that fukking simple
Not everything in this world is a bean pie conspiracy dikkhead

Cause it's easy for them. Black hairstyles in games usually end up being afros, dreadlocks, and fades.

Remember most games developers and concept artists are white, Latin or Asian.
